Help pick a middle name

We've agreed on the first name Lily.
We've like it for years and goes really nicely with our surname, now just trying to pick a middle name.

Top favourites are:
Lily Jasmine
Lily Amber

Lily Jasmine 🥰

I voted Jasmine. I do really like Jasmine anyways but Lily Jasmine sounds very pretty.

I think LJ is a nice nn too.

Much prefer it over Lily Amber.

I voted for Lily Amber - I like that Amber is a nature name but not another flower.

I'd also choose Amber to avoid having two flower names. The two floral names together make it sound like a paint colour.

I love the name Jasmine, would love to have it as a first name but don't like it being shortened to Jas which it probably would do as she got older so thought it might be nice as a middle name instead

Amber. I think two flower names is a bit much.

I voted for Lily Amber, but they are both beautiful names!

Edited

I thought I'd Google it to see what came up, no paint colours but a perfume which I guess is similar with it being 2 flower names. So I'm thinking Amber might be the better choice

Lily Jessica
Lily Alanna

I'd choose Amber because it's a nature name but not as obviously as Jasmine. I do love the name Jasmine though.
